So, I used Migration Assistant to transfer old files/apps etc from my Time Machine backup onto my new MBP
Does anybody know whether it's suppose to carry over /Library/Receipts for those things that it brought over? For instance I had XCode 3.1.1 installed but I don't have any of those receipts in /Library/Receipts but it came across.
What is the difference b/w using Migration Assistant like this and install the whole OS again from Time Machine backup? I suspect the later isn't wise since the MBP's have custom build but I assume that Migration Assistant has the smarts to know the newer apps/frameworks etc win over the older ones.
